MAHARSHI AMARA (1919-1982)
(Excerpts from old newsletters)
WE TEACH MEDITATION AS TAUGHT
BY THE RISHIS
Nowadays, more and more people are exclaiming about the years
rolling by faster. 2006 has almost come to the end! And it began only
yesterday!
It is not possible to explain in rational terms that the time is moving
faster. It will move faster in the next few years, till the Pralaya processes are
completed. Who cause this unbelievable phenomenon to occur? It is the
Rishis who work under the Divine, directly. It is to quickly take this earth
through the Pralaya processes which involve death, destruction and
suffering.
LIGHT
is the Intelligent Power behind all
Creation. Light is God.
LIGHT WORK
is assisting all life to raise its levels of
Awareness and Experience for a
better living.
LIGHT BEINGS
are the Rishis living in this and higher
planes who gather and radiate the
Light of Knowledge and Energies.
SAPTA RISHIS
are the Hierarchy; the chosen Masters
who guide all beings to live in Peace
and Perfection here and then go back
to their Source, the Light.
MAHARSHI AMARA
was a special Master who was in direct
Contact with the Sapta Rishis and who
channelled Knowledge and Guidelines
for the New Age of Higher Living.
GURUJI KRISHNANANDA
was the direct Disciple of Amara. He
developed Saptarshi Dhyana Yoga, the
Path of the Rishis and established the
Sapta Rishis' Spiritual Centre at
Taponagara.
SAPTARSHI DHYANA YOGA
is a unique way of Meditations and
positivising emotions and thoughts
taught by the Rishis for proper living
of both the Spiritual and Material
Lives.
THE AFFIRMATIONS
 We are particles of One Great
Light (God)
 Love is our nature
 Silence is our language
 Meditation is our way
 This world is our sanctuary
 The entire Creation is our family
 God is our Guru; Rishis are our
Guides.
There was a question: “Which is the single most important factor that
keeps you healthy?” I did not have to even think for a second to know the
answer: “It is the contact with the Rishis.” The contact, whether we are
aware of it consciously or not, will be feeding and showering us with
Divine energies which keep us healthy at the levels of the body, mind and
intellect. I wish everyone becomes aware of this factor. Contact with the
Rishis, in turn, establishes contact with the Divine. The contact brings not
merely good health, but everything else.
When I was contemplating on how to establish and retain the contact
always, I realized intuitively that we have to enter into the contact through
thoughts. Thoughts lead and if we persist they gently push us beyond their
level to enter into the realm of experience. Deep contemplation leads to
Samadhi.
The general understanding is that it is the mind which is powerful in this
system. But it is not so. It is the intellect which is more powerful. Thoughts
lead our Awareness. Thoughts make us choose. Positive thoughts keep us
healthy. In reality, thoughts rule our lives.
Whenever a Meditator in this Path has an emotional problem that he
cannot deal with or is in a Spiritual dilemma, I want to help and guide him. I
want to intensify this Guidance from this year. The intention is to relieve
the burden so that the Meditator focuses on Sadhana. Once the Spiritual
problems are taken care of, the material problems vanish by themselves.
And once the problems vanish, the Meditators have to devote more
attention towards Sadhana. Sadhana is my utmost concern.

LIGHT CHANNELLING EXPERIENCES
(Compiled by Vaishali Joshi)
It is nice to have something like this, which refreshes and quietens us. We
have got a gift of contentment and silence.
- Ms. Kalpana Pote, Teacher, PMC School, Pune
I had developed giddiness and some discomfort. The doctor prescribed
tablets and advised a salt free diet. I started taking tablets but did not follow the
salt free prescription. Instead, along with my regular fitness exercises I started
practising the Light Channelling technique. When I went for my routine check
up, the doctor was surprised to see that I was normal. He enquired if I had
followed his instructions and reduced salt. I said 'no.' But I know Light
Channelling has helped me get over this problem. I have found lot of relief.
- Mr. Ramakrishna, Headmaster, Y. A. S. National High School,
Bangalore
Light Channelling has been introduced in our school for the past two years.
I have got many benefits by practising it every day. I practise when I wake up,
which helps me to be active the whole day. Even in school our day starts with
Meditation, which helps in concentrating on the explanation. My memory
power has also increased to a great extent.
- Ayush, Std. IX, Cordial School, Bangalore
I am practising the Light Channelling technique every day for the past two
years. Since then my concentration level has improved. I am studying well and
scoring good marks.
- Kedar Hegde, Std. IX, Cordial School, Bangalore
Whenever I practise the Light Channelling technique no negative thought
enters my mind and I experience great peace.
- Student, Vinod English school, Bangalore
LIGHT CHANNELS
WORLD MOVEMENT
This is a Movement in Conscience.
A Movement to make this world a
beautiful place full of Love and Peace.
A Movement with no sermons or
banners. A Movement where just
channelling and spreading the Light
are enough. Channel the Light and the
Light will do everything. Everything
that words cannot do.
When we channel and spread the
Light, it enters others' hearts and
homes and transforms the darkness in
thoughts and emotions. Then the
individuals transform. With the
individuals, the world transforms. It
becomes a place full of Light.
This is not the physical Light but the
subtlest Light from the Core from
which all creation has come. This
Light has everything: the Power,
Wisdom and the Future. And it is
everywhere, unseen.
Let us channel and spread the
Light for 7 minutes daily when we
wake up and go to sleep and
transform the world.
This Movement was launched on 185-2008 by the Galactic Council, the
Sapta Rishis, through Guruji
Krishnananda.
Spread this Message to all.

SHAMBALA PRINCIPLES
TAPONAGARA DIARY
Seema Almel
Life is a journey. The varying amplitude of highs and lows on the path, our
own strengths and weaknesses, capabilities and limitations make the journey
easy or difficult. When the destination is common and shared with a
community, traversing the path needs Spiritual maturity. More so, when the
goal is to maintain and evolve a Spiritual community – an extraordinary
attempt made by ordinary human beings.
Taponagarites understand that accommodation, patience and nonjudgement are aspects of applied Oneness. Giving everyone the time and space
they need to outgrow their flaws is in keeping with the Laws of Love and
Freedom in Taponagara. In Guruji's Taponagara, every shoulder has to be
strong enough for another to lean on, every heart has to be large enough to
confide in and every smile has to be genuinely deep enough for a troubled soul
to find courage to bear its crosses. When collective Perfection is aimed at in a
group, a member's strength makes up for the weakness of another; thus holding
the overall Spiritual Energies high.
Guruji taught, “Grow from wherever you find yourself.” Sadhana is to
grow in Perfection, for which knowing one's areas of improvement is
extremely important. The ethos of Taponagara gives everyone the space and
time to know their imperfections and correct themselves.
Doorways, October 2014
These are the seven principles
given by the ancient Rishis which
are practised by the people living in
Shambala, a city of Light on earth.
They live in Peace and Perfection
without ageing.
1 Experience the Light in your Core
and spread it around.
2 Experience and spread Love.
3 Experience the Oneness of Life in
everyone and everything.
4 Carry on the daily activities first
in mind, then verbalise it in soft
whispers and then actualise
them in deeds.
5 Observe the law of secrecy
before achieving any goal by
minimising talks about it.
6 Gear up the body, mind and
intellect to fight out the
negativities.
7 Draw your own lines of
contentment with the material
requirements to pursue higher
Spiritual goals.

THUS SPOKE GURUJI
Excerpts from Guruji's talks
(Compiled by Shobha K. Rao)
September 2004
People leave this Path, leave
without notice. In all these years,
only one person told me, 'I am unable
to meditate, please allow me to leave
this Path and bless me!' Such a
sincere thing should be appreciated.
But somehow people leave, come
after three or four years and join back
and say that they would like to
continue from the same stage of
Meditation. We tell them, 'three or
four years of break in Sadhana
makes a lot of difference and you
have to begin from a lower stage.'
They get angry. It is a common
experience.
During check-ups, when we do
not shift students to the next stage of
M e d i t a t i o n , t h e y g e t a n g r y.
Sometimes they come and tell me
that the teacher did not make the
change! People do not realize that
he or she, who is sitting there, is
guided by the same Rishi who guides
me and I cannot make any change!
Getting attached emotionally comes
in the way of Spiritual progress. I
consciously discourage it and keep a
distance. This helps the individual to
grow independently and not depend
entirely on us / on me. When people
become aware of this distance, they
get angry. Anyway, getting angry is
not Spiritual.
I was reading a very popular
book, millions of copies of which
have been sold. I came across a line,
'between one thought and the other,
there is silence. It is during such
silence, we experience Samadhi.'
Yes there is space, there is silence
between one and the other thought.
This silence can be extended. It is a
very beautiful observation. But the
Rishis say, we experience Samadhi
not between thoughts but beyond
thoughts / beyond the level of
thoughts. He said, the most
important part in the mind is the
thinking part, but we know that the
mind does not think and it is the
intellect which thinks. It is a very
simple truth. Here we have more
knowledge from the Rishis and we
have to make use of it. We should not
miss this opportunity of coming
nearer the Rishis. In fact,
incidentally let us know that this is
not the first time we are sitting before
the Rishis and learning. We have
done it earlier many times.
During Meditation, a person had
a wonderful experience of floating in
space. When he was explaining this
experience he told me that it was
calmer and purer there. Somehow,
this word attracted me a lot. When I
was contemplating on this, it was
revealed that, where there is life,
there is struggle. There is life on this
earth, not in space. We have politics
here, not there. So where there is life,
there is imperfection and of course
there is joy, pain, birth, death, failure
and success. Failures, success, etc.
are natural phases in life. We have to
accept and understand and make
efforts to rise above them.
People have experiences; some
have more experiences. Sometimes,
these experiences become few and
sometimes they may even stop. It is
then people get worried and I start
getting emails asking why the
experiences have stopped. When the
experiences of the soul, which are
Ananda, vastness, etc. begin, the
experiences of the mind, the psychic
experiences like visions may stop.
In fact when such a thing happens,
we have to be happy; we can say that
there is progress. But this is
understood intellectually; they do
not accept it. People want the
experiences of the mind only. They
cry and crave to have them again.
The Rishis will give these
experiences back and we come down
and go back, start enjoying these
experiences. Thus we get stuck in
many ways. Amara said,
'experiences are good but no
experience is better.' He also said
many things - he said, 'do not get
attached to me emotionally or
intellectually.' He said, like only a
Master can say, 'go beyond me.' I
repeat this often; in spite of such
repetitions people tend to develop
attachments. It is not that I enjoy my
photo being kept and worshipped! I
know it does not help. Here we are
very serious about Sadhana.
Mukti is liberation. It is freedom
from all bondages. What we have to
realize and is very important is, that
each and every emotion and thought
of ours takes us towards Mukti or
takes us away from Mukti. It is not a
stage which we reach when we
meditate and come out of it. Mukti is
gained or lost daily every moment in
our emotions and thought.
Therefore living is important - living
emotionally and intellectually. We
must also realize that if we do not
utilize all the knowledge and
facilities given to us for
transforming ourselves to move
towards Mukthi, then Pralaya hits
us; suddenly we will have problems,
frustration, pains, etc. And if we do
not recover, we lose the opportunity
of this life. But if we follow the
instructions from the Rishis even to a
small extent we will not fail. The
Rishis do not want us to fail. We
have to remember always that dark
forces will be waiting to enter and
assault us. They will work through
our negative emotions and thoughts.
I feel sad when people fall prey to
these negative emotions, negative
thoughts, and I feel sorry when they
suffer. I feel sad because they miss
the opportunities.

EXCERPTS FROM TALKS BY SHRI JAYANT DESHPANDE
(Compiled by Shobha K Rao)
22-06-2014
One of the students asked a
question, 'Are the events of this life
pre-destined?'
Our Karmas of the past lives
decide our karmic track or destiny.
But this karmic track can be changed
with our efforts, with Meditations.
Meditations burn the Karmas and
when the Karmas are burnt, the
karmic track also changes.
Meditations also help us to
transform; and when transformation
occurs then we stop acquiring new
Karmas.
Let us understand our karmic
track as a set of experiences,
opportunities and challenges that we
are going to have in our life.
Irrespective of the Karmas, we will
always have opportunities; they
never cease. I feel challenges and
opportunities always go together.
How we deal with the challenges and
how we respond to the opportunities
is really up to us. Our Karmas do not
decide, our destiny does not decide
how we respond to the opportunities.
And how we respond to the
challenges and opportunities shapes
our destiny. So we can say that there
is nothing like a definite destiny. We
make use of the opportunities with
our wisdom, with our capacities,
with will power and with faith. Even
a non-Meditator creates his destiny
depending on how he faces the
challenges, how he responds to the
opportunities. It is not the Karmas
that decide.
A person in very great difficulties
can still hold on to the values. And
another person in great comforts
may not be able to follow all the
values. It is possible. So we need not
really worry about the destiny. But if
we are able to hold on to the
principles, somehow the destiny will
take care of itself. We will move in
the right direction. I am not trying to
belittle the problems people face.
People do go through very serious
Doorways, October 2014
issues, very serious difficulties. It is
a fact. And at such times we need
help. We need support. And the
Rishis are always there. They always
make sure that we do not collapse.
When a situation like that comes
they always somehow go out of the
way to help us. It is a fact.
Another example that I can think
of to understand this point more
clearly is like this: Let us say the
destiny that we were talking of,
brings us in contact with a guru who
teaches Meditations. We come in
contact with him but whether we
take up Meditations or not is a choice
we make. Our destiny doesn't make
that choice. We make that choice. If
we take up Meditations, our destiny
will again change because
Meditations will bring changes in us.
Even after taking up Meditations,
how seriously we practise it, how
seriously we follow the principles
learnt is again a choice we make. In
this Path we have seen that
thousands have learnt Meditations
from Guruji but how many are there
now? Maybe there are a few hundred
people. People come, learn and then
they quit. That's not their destiny.
They need not quit. They can
continue. All the thousands of
people could have continued
actually. It is a choice they have
made. That's all.
Let us think of another example
of a set of people who are not
destined to meet a guru. But if these
people somehow wish to grow and
decide to take up Spiritual practices,
then the Universe will make such
arrangements that a guru will come
in contact with them. This is a fact.
So we are never deprived of
opportunities if we want to grow. It is
really amazing to understand the
working of the Universe.
03-08-2014
Let us re-visit 'Spirituality'. What
is the meaning of being Spiritual?
Being Spiritual as defined by
Guruji is just being good, honest and
peaceful. It is not about going to
temples or going on pilgrimages.
Also, only meditating regularly does
not necessarily make us Spiritual.
Joining a Spiritual path also does not
necessarily make us Spiritual. Being
Spiritual is living according to our
true nature, the true nature of our
spirit, our soul. Our true nature is
Godlike. Love is our true nature.
Being Spiritual is being
compassionate,
being
accommodative. It is being
forgiving. Sometimes it is difficult to
forgive. The experiences will be
such we think that only settling
scores will give us relief. We cannot
move forward with such an attitude.
At such times we have to make a
choice. Do we want to continue our
Spiritual journey or do we want to
settle scores? God will not drag us if
we do not want to make our journey.
There is Freewill always.
Being Spiritual is being sober. It
is not being aggressive. It is living a
balanced life, giving equal
importance to our Sadhana and to
our responsibilities and our duties. It
is experiencing this life fully. That is
the very purpose for which we have
come down.
Spirituality is not finding faults in
others. When we live with people we
naturally notice their shortcomings.
But deliberately trying to find faults
is not being Spiritual.
Being Spiritual is not being
selfish. It is drawing lines of
contentment.
Many times this question arises
in us, are we really making Spiritual
progress? At such times I feel we can
sit down in a corner and check
whether we are really following
these things. We have to assess our
behaviour, our choices and then we
can see for ourselves where we
stand.

payable at Bangalore.
SPECIAL GUIDELINES BY GURUJI
 Have patience. Do not expect to
experience Samadhi the first day! Do
not expect miracles. But miracles do
occur silently when we pursue
Sadhana genuinely.
 Each one faces struggles in a different
way. But struggles vanish with
practice.
 Each one has experiences in a special
way. But do not give too much
importance to these.
The
experiences are good. But they are
not the measures of Spiritual
progress.
 Do not try to analyse the processes
during Meditation. Analysis does not
help Stillness.
 Thoughts are common. Do not worry.
Do not try to drive them away. Just
ignore them. There is no other way.
There are many questions from
people like: “How to solve the
problems of daily life?”, “How can
we take decisions and overcome
dilemmas? How to ensure that our
decisions are always correct?” And,
“How can we avoid taking spiritually
wrong decisions?” etc. Human
beings have faced such dilemmas
ever since the dawn of civilization.
Every question is a Spiritual one for
the one who is on the path of
awakening, for the one to whom the
only purpose of doing anything is to
grow spiritually.
Historically, whenever people
forgot about Spirituality and turned
purely materialistic great Masters
like Lord Krishna, Lord Buddha,
Jesus Christ and many others took
birth to awaken the masses by
answering their questions. These
Masters taught how to follow
Dharma or righteousness.
Guruji had said Dharma is living
in tune with our true nature, which is
love. The teacher passes on the
knowledge. It is the responsibility of
the student to convert it into his
personal wisdom; then the teaching
is complete. Applying what we have
learnt here in our daily life should be
a continuous practice that will help
us grow in Spiritual wisdom.
We should not be afraid of making
mistakes while applying the
knowledge if our intention is purely
to grow spiritually.
Jesus says, “God has written the
laws on your hearts. He has not
carved them in stone.” If we follow
our hearts we will be following them
properly. Guruji has taught us that
Divine values are built into each soul.
And our conscience is the voice of
God Himself, which guides us when
we drift away from the path.
In religion its followers must
apply the scripture without thinking
and understanding, which actually
makes it very easy to follow. In
Spirituality each individual must
understand the values and apply
them, and apply their own wisdom.
Because of this, expansion and
Spiritual growth are possible only on
a Spiritual path. Guruji used to say,
“You can fly only with your own
wings. You cannot borrow them and
fly.”
Understanding Spirituality and
applying it means following
Dharma, which has been a very
important aspect of life in the earlier
Yugas. Dharma is higher when we
take into consideration the needs of
others while applying it. With the
help of our intuition and conscience
and a pure intent to follow Dharma
we can ensure that we always take
the right decisions.
Through the channel of intuition
the knowledge that we already have
at the deepest level can be brought to
the conscious level. Through
intuition the soul can also know
things directly. Intuition helps us
know the facts or truths about
something. The conscience helps us
recognise right and wrong based on
Divine values, which are absolute. It
does not force us to follow its
guidance. Everyone has intuition and
conscience. We can recognize them
only if we are calm always.
If we are willing to consider every
situation in life as an opportunity to
grow spiritually then it really does
not matter what the outcome of our
decision is. We either gain something
or we learn something. Lord Krishna
said, “Do your duty and leave the
result to me.” So, whenever we are
faced with a big dilemma, let us not
worry too much about the outcome of
our decision. Let us do our part and
pray. And happily accept the result
regardless of whether it was what we
expected.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
LIST OF OUR PUBLICATIONS
(Compiled by Shobha K Rao)
Q: How are the plants and animals
accepting the New Age?
A: Whenever new energies, New
Age energies are released, the
plants and animals and the nature
accept them easily without
resisting; they slowly evolve or
mutate into higher versions.
Q: Do the Rishis have powers to skip
the Pralaya period?
A: They have. But Pralaya is for us to
learn and change, hence they are
allowing these Pralaya processes
to happen.
Q: When we experience Light which
part of our system experiences the
Light?
A: The whole system. Every cell in
our system - physical, mental,
intellectual experiences Light.
Q: Does Sun gazing help us living on
Prana?
A: Sometimes yes. It depends on
your Spiritual condition. A very
beautiful and very touching point
is that, when you practice
ordinary Pranayama the Sun God
who knows your requirement will
give you special Prana without
your knowledge.
Q: What is the difference between
Prana and the Cosmic energy?
A: Of course the source. Prana is
from Sun. Cosmic energy is from
the Universe. It's available
everywhere. Prana is meant for
our sustenance. Prana also heals.
But Cosmic energy may help us to
sustain ourselves, it may heal, it
also has a lot of knowledge. This
Cosmic energy is God Himself,
and has everything that God has.
Q: Does a person living on Prana
age?
A: Yes he does.
Q: When we meditate our track of
Karmas changes. Then what
Doorways, October 2014
happens to the people connected
to us? Will their tracks also
change? What happens to their
Karmas?
A: The soul mates are one. So if the
track of one soul mate changes the
other's also changes. It is as if they
have one track. Except in the
cases of soul mates the other
people will continue in their
tracks. It is a very clear answer
from the Rishis.
Q: When I meditate do I clear the
Karmas of the people, of the place
also?
A: We do. Don't think when you
meditate you just clear your
Karmas or attain your individual
Spiritual goal. We do much more.
When you meditate you generate
vibrations of love and peace.
When we meditate we clear our
Karmas, the Karmas of the place,
the Karmas of our parents, soul
mate, of the society. Sometimes
we take upon the Karmas of
others.
Q: Is there anything more to be
sought if one offers oneself as a
channel to the Light?
A: Once you offer yourself to the
Light you don't have to ask for
anything.
Q: Should a Light channel worry
about Karmas and the Spiritual
laws?
A: You don't have to worry. When we
channel Light some of the Karmas
are burnt, cleared. And a person
who channels Light naturally and
automatically will be following
all the Spiritual laws.
Q: Does Light punish us?
A: No. We punish ourselves by our
own deeds, emotions. A wrong
act attracts Karmas; if I commit a
very serious mistake I will be
punished for it. There is a
universal justice system which
operates.

On my first visit to Taponagara,
during Meditation in the Saptarshi
cave I saw the entire floor of the cave
teeming, bubbling and pulsating with
Divine energy. Below the floor, many
energy tunnels appeared. I tried
entering one of them with a bright
light at the end of it, but the tunnel
was closed. I entered another tunnel
which took me to the floor of the
ocean. When I reached the surface of
the ocean, suddenly Lord Mahavishnu
resting on Adisesha appeared along
with Goddess Mahalakshmi!
My brother was seriously ill and
was admitted to a hospital in
Hyderabad. I prayed for his speedy
recovery in the Kundalini Tower.
While praying, Maharshi Amara
appeared in my vision. On the way
back home, I got a phone call that my
brother's health condition had
miraculously improved and he was
discharged!
- Singh D R
On Guru Poornima, during
Meditation I had a vision of three of
my academic gurus blessing me. Also,
at the end of the vision I was blessed
by our beloved Guruji. He touched my
head and immediately I prostrated at
his Lotus feet, felt blessed and
received energies. It was a great
experience!
- Swaminathan C
Few months back when I was
meditating, I could see a part of my
respiratory system infected and
blocked with cold. I did catch the cold
in the following week. But, I went
through the spell as a witness and not
as a victim, watching everything as if it
was happening to someone else. I
realised that by aligning with the Light
we can not only alienate pain but also
sail through the difficulties by
focusing just on the action plan to
overcome the same.
- Nirmala Bala
I have undergone a very deep
surgery at the Spiritual level during
the last two days in Taponagara. The
most tough and hard blocks in my
body were knocked out. Those zones
are now filled with Sanjeevani. I
experience a very soothing feeling. I
feel intoxicated with Bliss. Thanks to
the Rishis and Masters for so much
Divine Grace..!!
- Pradhan Nandakumar
It has been an extremely
enlightening journey and an ongoing
learning experience. It has taught me
the simple yet powerful lesson to look
within to find oneself and accept
oneself with unconditional love, with
all the failings and fears. It is only
when one is able to love oneself that
we can love all unconditionally. All this
is possible only through Guruji's and
Rishis' love and grace which one can
easily see and feel through the
Manasa family members' untiring
selfless work, which has never let us
feel any void after Guruji.
- Kavita Manjunath
It's a year and a half since I joined
the Manasa family. I am inspired by
the comradeship and the
unconditional love and purit y
prevailing in the environment of
Taponagara. The Divine Guides who
are constantly attending to our needs
further motivate the majority of
seekers who visit this place; seeking
for the positive vibrations emitting
from the Cosmic and Kundalini
Towers.
I wish to continue to
experience until physically prevented
by nature.
